Detach the hose and regulator assembly from the
LP Gas tank valve by turning the Quick Coupling
Nut counterclockwise. Do not use a wrench or any
tools when turning the Quick Coupling Nut.
Turn all Burner Valves to the OFF position.
Inspect the valve connection port and regulator
assembly for damage or debris. Remove any
debris. Never use damaged or plugged equip-
ment.
Connect the regulator assembly to the tank valve
and HAND TIGHTEN nut clockwise to a full stop.
DO NOT use a wrench to tighten because it could
damage the Quick Coupling Nut and result in a
gas leak/fire hazard.
Open the tank valve (counterclockwise) 1/4 to 1/2
of a full turn, and use a soapy water solution to
check all connections for leaks before attempting
to light your grill. See
"Check all connections for
LP Gas Leaks"
. If a leak is found, turn the tank
valve off and do not use your grill until the leak is
repaired.
CAUTION:
When the appliance is not in use the gas must
be turned off at the tank. Place dust cap on cylinder valve
outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the
type of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is
provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or
plugs may result in leakage of propane.
WARNING
!
!
If you have a gas leak that cannot be repaired by
tightening the tank valve, turn off the gas at the source
and disconnect fuel line from your grill. Call 1-877-
934-7455 or your gas supplier for repair assistance.
Never
test for leaks with an open flame. Prior to first
use, at the beginning of each season, or every time
your LP Gas tank is changed, you must check for gas
leaks. Follow these three steps:
Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid
detergent and one part water.
Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF
position, then turn the gas ON at source.
Apply the soap solution to all gas connections
indicated by the arrows. See Diagram. If bubbles
appear in the soap solution the connections are
not properly sealed. Check each fitting and tighten
or repair as necessary.
